Adult Stem Cells Act As Construction Supervisors In Tissue Repair
Charlottesville VA (SPX) Nov 24, 2005For years it was believed that adult stem cells, under conditions of reduced oxygen - such as that found in victims of a heart attack or stroke - acted as building blocks by constructing new passageways for blood to bypass damaged tissue. Stem Cells Used To Grow Cartilage 
London (UPI) Nov 16, 2005Imperial College London scientists report they have converted human embryonic stem cells into cartilage cells. Cartilage is the dense connective tissue usually found between bones to allow the smooth movement of joints. Forgotten By Evolution? 
Bad Nauheim, Germany (SPX) Nov 02, 2005For a fairly long time, adult stem cells have been a point of scientific interest. Besides the question of how to use them therapeutically, researchers have been investigating what exactly their physiological function could be. |
Stem Cells Turned Into Organ Precursors
Washington (UPI) Oct 28, 2005 Scientists said Friday they have for the first time turned embryonic stem cells in the lab into a type of cell that can give rise to several internal organs, including the pancreas, liver and lungs. Analysis: Stem-Cell Findings Move Senators 
Washington (UPI) Oct 19, 2005Opponents of embryonic stem-cell research have been emboldened by recent experiments in which scientists succeeded in extracting the cells without destroying the embryos containing them. South Korea To Lead New Stem-Cell Center 
Washington DC (UPI) Oct 19, 2005A multi-national partnership led by South Korean researchers soon may be cloning human cells to generate embryonic stem cells for research intended to lead to insights into various disorders. |

New Stem Cell Techniques Spare Embryos
Washington (UPI) Oct 16, 2005 Two teams of scientists said Sunday they each had devised a unique method to obtain embryonic stem cells without destroying a viable embryo. Stem Cells Used To Repair Fetal Defect
Washington (UPI) Oct 08, 2005Researchers said Saturday they have used stem cells collected from the amniotic fluid surrounding fetal lambs to grow windpipes, and then implanted the tissue back into the fetuses while they were still in the womb - a breakthrough that could lead to ways to repair congenital defects before birth. Neural Stem Cells Are Long-Lived
New York NY (SPX) Oct 06, 2005New studies in mice have shown that immature stem cells that proliferate to form brain tissues can function for at least a year � most of the life span of a mouse � and give rise to multiple types of neural cells, not just neurons. The discovery may bode well for the use of these neural stem cells to regenerate brain tissue lost to injury or disease. |
Embryonic Stem Cells Accrue Genetic Changes
Baltimore MD (SPX) Sep 07, 2005 An international team of researchers has discovered that human embryonic stem cell lines accumulate changes in their genetic material over time. British Scientists Create Nerve Stem Cells 
Edinburgh, England (UPI) Aug 16, 2005Scientists at the Universities of Edinburgh and Milan reportedly made the world's first pure nerve stem cells from human embryonic stem cells. Group Urges Bush To Ease Stem Cell Limits 
Washington DC (UPI) Aug 08, 2005Tuesday marks the fourth anniversary of President Bush's landmark decision on embryonic-stem-cell research, and an advocacy group wants to capitalize on the occasion. |
